The American television channel CNN and the international agency Associated Press have stopped working with photographer Hassan Eslaiah, who filmed the moment Hamas invaded Israel.
This came after HonestReporting, an organization that claims to protect Israel from media bias, questioned the ethics of publishing the photos that captured the moment of the invasion.
HonestReporting obtained screenshots of Eslaiah’s already deleted tweets, in which he posted selfies with a burning Israeli tank in the background. The organization also found a photo of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar kissing the reporter on the cheek.
Earlier, Reuters and AP said that the photographers who cooperated with them did not have any prior information about the attack on Israel.
